Adult peacocks court peahens by vibrating the erect tail and elongated upper tail covert feathers during their train-rattling displays. Wing-shaking is also performed during courtship. Slow-motion clips of train-rattling peacocks demonstrate that the eyespots remain relatively stationary (as compared to the rest of the eyespot feather), and that the tail drives the vibrations by stridulating against the train feathers.
